  • 2011 Audi RS5

    When Audi released the RS4 back in 2005, few expected it to be a true competitor to BMW’s benchmark M3 but with the benefit of quattro all-wheel drive, a high-revving V-8, and better weight distribution, the performance sedan managed to upset many, if not, all of its rivals. A replacement for the RS4 is still several years away as RS variants are usually only released in the final couple of years of a standard model’s product cycle, but to fill the gap a brand new RS5 model is due. The 2011 Audi RS5 made its world debut last month at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show and come complete with an...

  • 2010 Audi A5 Cabriolet

    For the first time in history, Audi has surpassed Mercedes-Benz in sales. The Ingolstadt-based automaker managed to move 264,100 units for the first three months of the year, versus 248,500 units sold by Mercedes-Benz.

  • Audi R8 in Iron Man

    With the Academy Awards less than 24 hours behind us, there's a lot we could talk about today --- which stars showed up in which cars, which movies about cars did well, which documentary about GM got shafted. But no. Today, there's a different ringing in our ears, and it's not the the Oscar buzz, but a massive, earth-shattering hangover. (Hey, we can't help the fact that we turn awards ceremonies into drinking drinking games any more than we can help the fact that we drink cheap beer.) And so, with our brains throbbing and our stomachs in knots, we can't provide our usual complement of witty...
